Total magnification:
The distance from the cover glass surface to the nearest point of the objective.
The N.A. value represents a performance number which can be compared to the relative
aperture (f-number) of a camera lens. The higher N.A., the higher the resolving power.
The ability to differentiate two points, i.e., the minimum distance by which the objects must be
separated in order to be revealed as two separate objects.
The depth in the image through which the focused image will appear uniformly sharp. As the
aperture iris diaphragm is stopped down, the focal depth becomes greater. The greater the N.A. of an
objective, the shorter the focal depth.
A number that represents the diameter in mm of the image of the field diaphragm that is formed by
the lens in front of it.
The actual size of the field of view in millimeters.
Equals the objective magnification multiplied by the eyepiece magnification.
